Rather than identifying as Nigerian-American, she refers to herself as "Naijamerican" and explains the importance of her dual heritage during a 2016 NPR interview: <blockquote>That's very much a part of my identity, and it's also very much a reason why I think I ended up writing science fiction and fantasy because I live on these borders – and these borders that allow me to see from multiple perspectives and kind of take things in and then kind of process certain ideas and certain stories in a very unique way. And that has led me to write this strange fiction that I write, which really isn't that strange if you really look at it through a sort of skewed lens.<a href="#cite_note-NPR-71">[71]</a> </blockquote>Okorafor noticed how the fantasy and science fiction genre contain little diversity, and that was her motivation for writing books of these genres set in Africa. She wanted to include more people of color and create stories with Africa as the setting because so few stories were set there. She wrote her first story as a college sophomore and made the setting of her story Nigeria.<a href="#cite_note-:1-7">[7]</a> Her stories place black girls in important roles that are usually given to white characters.<a href="#cite_note-NYTimes-12">[12]</a> Okorafor cites Nigeria as "her muse" as she is heavily influenced by Nigerian <a href="/wiki/Folklore" title="Folklore">folklore</a> and its rich mythology and mysticism.<a href="#cite_note-NYTimes-12">[12]</a> <a href="/wiki/Gary_K._Wolfe" title="Gary K.

In October 2019, she published an essay titled "Defining Africanfuturism" that defines both terms in detail.<a href="#cite_note-2019blog-3">[3]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="World_Fantasy_Award">World Fantasy Award</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Nnedi_Okorafor&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: World Fantasy Award">edit</a>]</div> Shortly after winning the World Fantasy Award in 2011, Okorafor published an essay "Lovecraft's racism & The World Fantasy Award statuette, with comments from <a href="/wiki/China_Mi%C3%A9ville" title="China Miéville">China Miéville</a>", in which she reflected upon her conflicting emotions on winning an award in the shape of a large silver bust of <a href="/wiki/H._P._Lovecraft" title="H.
